So you went with the Wilwoods? Badass, ha
You can use my garage and EARL for 25%. Money goes to MG operations. (i.e., Lemon, Snake, Site.) Just throwing it out there.

I'm moody, but I'd like to go with GS 5-link and Wilwoods all around for my C3, eventually a bitch slapping 383, maybe Supercharged. It's already something way different than people expect, but I see a couple levels up.

Those 5 links are cool, because once you lower a C3 to a certain point toe goes in when the suspension compresses. Which is not what you want when cornering. But the 5 link corrects that.

I really want that Toms 12 bolt stuffed into my IRS.

I think the 383 is kind of a waste of your time. You've got an LS in place. Just buy some low comp heads and/ or pistons, and boost that bitch up.

Carlos/Adam. Y'all are more then welcome to use the shop for spraying purposes. We have 2 300 gallons compressors that make paint work easy. Hell, painted almost 3 cars there so far.

Good to know, the project cars will need to be sprayed (though we can just redneck the Lemon in a garage wherever it is). Also, fortune is slowly beginning to turn for me and I will return to working on the Vette within a year and paint is one of the things I'd like to do; it's pretty nasty now.

A full on paint job is pretty difficult here. Especially because of the train. Individual items are fine they just take a little more care and prep along with a fair amount of buffing after. But better then paying a shop since its illegal to rent a booth in CA now
